Reality

In contrast to the lovely Hoan Kiem, this is what an average day in the life of a farmer might look like. They have little time to walk the city and enjoy the scenery or notice the butterflies. They are hardworking people accustomed to doing most of the labor on their farms by hand. These farmers are cleaning corn, a newly popular crop in Vietnam. Corn and rice are rotated in the fields in an attempt to keep more nutrients in the soil.
